[C] [Am]
[G] [F]
[C] Trouble travels fast when you're specially designed [D] for crash [Am] testing
Or wearing wool sunglasses [Em] in the afternoon Come [F] on and tell us what you're trying to prove
[Em] Cause [C] it's a battle when you dabble in war You store [D] it up on a leasher then you piece it together
Weather [Em] the storm, drain, run and rampant, you stamp it [F] Send it to somebody who's pretending to care
[E] [Am] Just cash [B] in your [D] blanks for little [F] toy tanks Learn how to use them, then abuse them
And choose them [Em] over conversations Relationships are overrated
[F] I hate it, everyone said [E] the sun And so I will [C] cook all your books
You tube a [G]-lookin' and a [Am]-snookin' You could watch it instead
From the [Em] comfort of your burning beds [G] Or you could sleep [F] through the static
[G] [C] But who [G] needs sleep [Am] when we've got love [F] Who [G] needs keys [C] when we've got clubs
Who [G] needs pleas [Am] when we've got guns [F] Who [G] needs peace when [C] we've gone above
But [G] beyond where we [Am] should have gone We went [F] beyond [G] where we should [C] have gone
Stuck between channels, my [Am] thoughts all quit I thought about them too much, allowed them to touch
The [E] feelings that [Em] rained down on the planes All dried and cracked, waiting for things that never came
[A] Shock an [D] awful thing to make somebody [Am] think That they have to choose pushing for peace
Supporting troops and [Em] either you're weak Or you use brute force, feed the truth
[F] Is we say not as we do [Gm] We [C] say anytime, anywhere
Just show your [Am] teeth and strike the fear of God
Wears camouflage, cries at night and drives a [E] Dodge
Picked up the beat to stop hogging [Am] the feast [F] That's no way to treat an enemy
[D] Well, [C] mighty, mighty, apocryte We'll just eat them up [Am] or keep on driving
Freedom can be freezing, take a picture from the pretty side
[Em] Mind your manners, wave your banners What a [F] wonderful world that this [G] angle can see
[C] But who [G] needs to [Am] see what we've done [F] Who [G] needs pleas [C] when we've got guns
Who [G] needs [Am] keys when we've got clubs [F] Who [G] needs [C] peace when we've gone above
But [G] beyond where [Am] we should have gone [F] We [G] [C] went [G] beyond where [Am] we should have gone
[F] Beyond [G] where [C] we should have gone
